Are Baldwin filters still having issues?

IMO With all the knockoffs you are risking it buying them off of EBay and that just got me thinking about Baldwin counterfeit’s.I used to use Baldwin’s on my Duramax years ago and remember that there was issues with them being counterfeited and this used to be on the Baldwin website https://vicfiltration.co.za/wp-content/u...cation.pdf

So know I’m wondering if the Baldwins with the gasket issues were counterfeit.
